Seriously , It could be a 50/50 draw and I can bet my paycheck each time that I'd lose! That is the only bet I can win and lose all in one shot!

After awhile I become immune to the *odds* and play simply because its a hoot to try systems and patterns. Someday that ship will come in , until then the *odds* are in the gamers favor to play or not to play.

i prefer to play big jackpot game (and it is the only kind i play) because anything below a $1million, isnt really life changing in my opinion - well at least for me.

i understand everyone has a different lifestyle - thus im only speaking for myself.

therefore i only play the MM, Powerball, and Euromillions

Tx has mech ball machines, not computer draws. Tx lotto had 5 decades play last Saturday from teens to fifties. I didn't think the numbers were abnormal. Except they weren't my numbers, LOL.

Several lotteries will be having raffles in the next couple of months that usually have prizes from $500 to $1 million. Five or six chances of winning $1 million for 20 bucks is a pretty good bet.

Good luck trying to win TX lottery with those crazy number that were posted Saturday night!! I think TX has a computer clich !!

I would love to watch the balls on a tv network. My odds are hitting 2 to 3 numbers each and every draw.... Something must be messed up somewhere.

Lots of Luck from Katy, TX

I love sharpening my skills on all the games. From Pick-3 to Mega Millions. I study and practice on all of the TX lotteries. With the expectation of winning a jackpot every time.

It appears that Ohio is keeping it real.

Jackpot is king, smaller prizes are just the pond.

I could get one in two odds of doubling my money with roulette (red or black). I would probably go for the large jackpot.

Most states have both and Ohio is one of those states.

MegaMillions $12M - $250M jackpots with odds of 1:175,711,536.

Classic Lotto $1M - $36M jackpots with odds of 1:13,983,816.

Rolling Cash5 $100K - $500K jackpots with odds of 1:575,757

Take you pick.

Personally, I'd rather see easier odds on the big jackpot games so there would be more millionaires more often. I think the better odds would increase sales as well as the humongous jackpots do now.

The odds are too ridiculous now in an effort to draw people with the possibility of being a mega multi millionaire.

I'd rather see more winners and know my chance was better to be one of them than it is now.

Would you prefer to play a lottery with a big jackpot or nice odds?

1:2 million win one million dollars(or smaller prizes) or 1:3 odds that you'll double your money
